Compile a file embedding modules with the lmtx engine
Hi, I'm sorry but I didn't necessarily follow all the threads. I use to make my graphics Metapost or Metafun, but I also sometimes use TiKz. This file compiles with context but not with lmtx because the modules are not recognized. I am willing to use only lmtx which seems to be the future of ConteXt, but how do I do that ? Thank you.

\stoptext you can put additional modules in texmf-local or texmf-modules (after installation run mtxrun --generate)
at some point the installer will deal with modules but that has to wait till we have set up the new repository infrastructure which will happen when there's is time Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | www.pragma-ade.nl | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Fabrice, do you have any modules installed in your LMTX distribution? As far as I know (sorry if I’ missing something), the user should install the modules manually for LMTX. Your sample compiles for me, but I copied the tex/texmf-modules directory from the ConTeXt Suite to the LMTX distribution. I hope this helps, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
Hi,
I did the installation then I copied the files and finally I did mtxrun
--generate
The file does not compile and I get a file where it says ERROR.
viserion@archlinux ~]$ cd /home/viserion/data/context/tex/texmf-modules/
[viserion@archlinux texmf-modules]$ ls
doc fonts ls-R metapost scripts source tex VERSION
[viserion@archlinux texmf-modules]$

Hi Fabrice, I have just installed both LMTX and the ConTeXt Suite brand new. I moved the tex/texmf-modules contents form the Suite to LMTX tex/temxf-modules. Your file was compiled perfectly fine. I removed the contents of tex/texmf-modules and I got these errors: system > jobfiles > unknown tex file '/home/ousia/64ctx/tex/texmf-modules/tex/context/pgf/frontendlayer/t-tikz.tex' modules > 'tikz' is loaded tex error > tex error on line 2 in file ./a.tex: ! Undefined control sequence <recently read> \syst_helpers_triple_empty_two_nop \usetikzlibrary l.2 \usetikzlibrary [calc] If you get a similar error, I would do the following: 1. Remove tex/texmf-cache/luatex-cache. 2. Run "mtxrun --generate". 3. Compile the document. I hope this helps, Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
I reinstalled context and lmtx, followed your instructions because I got
the same error message but now I get another error message; my editor is
Emacs.
Thank you.

Hi Fabrice, from the shell, run "~/LMTX/tex/texmf-linux-64/bin/mtxrun --generate" before. After that, it should compile your document fine. Pablo -- http://www.ousia.tk
Hi Pablo,
It seems to be working, thanks for your help.
